Technological Study on the 3D Collaborative Design System Oriented Project Management

Abstract

The concept and content of project management in the networked collaborative design system is presented according to the mechanical product design typical process and its state-of-the-art requirement. The key technologies of the collaborative project management are studied mainly, the Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (F-AHP) algorithm is employed to select collaborative partners, the method of Design Structure Matrix (DSM) is put forward in process of decomposing and assigning design tasks, and the weight-coefficient recursively statistic algorithm is used in controlling task schedule. The implementing technologies of the 3D networked collaborative design system oriented project management are researched simultaneously, such as collaborative data communication, conversation tool and design tool. The archetypal system platform was developed, it's proved that the 3D collaborative design system is qualified for complex mechanical product collaborative design by synergic team.
